Abstract excerpt
During the process of animal domestication, both natural and artificial selection cause variation in allele frequencies among populations. Identifying genomic areas of selection in domestic animals may aid in the detection of genomic areas linked to ecological and economic traits. We studied genomic variation in 140 worldwide goat individuals, including 75 Asian, 30 African and 35 European goats. We further...
